I didn't get back home until around 12:30 last night then had trouble getting to sleep so got out later than normal today. It was warm and humid (74). When I started off my legs felt kind of sluggish but then felt better as I got going. Added 8 x 100 strides at the end. I didn't want to do to much today since I am going to do a long run tomorrow. Just glad to be back home.

Nice mileage this week. Glad to see you had some good runs on the road as well. Have fun on the long run tomorrow.

Very smart for saving your legs for the long run. Also great idea to run strides after finishing a sluggish run, because that will really help sharpen your form. They really help control your form, and help active those fast twitch muscle fibers after a slow run.
